Meatloaf with Mushroom Gravy

Meatloaf is something we’ve all had at one time or another. I’ve found it to be true it’s either really good or really bad. If it falls in the later it’s usually because it’s as dry as the Sahara desert. When it’s done right meatloaf can be magnificent. We all know it’s not going to win any beauty contests but it will satisfy your hunger in a big way. Meatloaf is stick to your ribs good and is a recipe you should have in your repertoire. We think ours is pretty special and after one bite we think you’ll agree. What’s our secret? The sauce.

You all know how much we love mushrooms in our house. Mushrooms and meatloaf go together like mashed potatoes and gravy. They just do. I decided to put all of those together and the result was a Southern down home comfort party on a plate. We didn’t just use mushrooms in the sauce, oh no, it’s double the mushroom love in this recipe. It’s IN the meatloaf and IN the sauce. While I’m not crazy about the word moist and try to avoid it almost always in this case it’s true and that’s because we bake the meatloaf IN the sauce. I know I know. Why haven’t we don’t this sooner?
